Every false alarm counts
Santa Fe Springs does not build free false alarms into its code.
Under SFSMC 91.08, a service charge set by City Council resolution is billed to the alarm owner for each police response to a false alarm. The code does not list the amount, so confirm it with the city. The code also states that generating any false alarm is a public nuisance (SFSMC 91.07), and a disconnect order may follow ten or more false alarms in a 12-month period (SFSMC 91.10).
Why it matters. With no free allowance in the code, careful setup and user training pay off from day one.
